+* Frozen tier: (Windows only) The frozen data tier relies on multiple caching mechanisms
+to speed up access to searchable snapshot files. One of these caches uses
+https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sparse_file[sparse files] to avoid creating large
+files on disk when it is not strictly required. A bug prevented files from being
+created with the right options to enable sparse support on Windows, leading {es} to
+create potentially large files that can end up consuming all the disk space.
++
+This issue is fixed in {es} versions 7.15.2 and later. There is no known workaround
+for earlier versions. Filesystems that enable sparse files by default are not affected.
+For more details, see {es-issue}79371[#79371].
